I was heading for six points in the H&V Prediction League, and then bloody Emile Heskey pops up with a wonder header.

You just couldn't write it.

I made exactly the same prediction.

I do feel sorry for SteveJos. Two Villa wins in a week and he couldn't celebrate either of them.
Let's hope he has nothing to cheer about for a long time to come

credit where it's due. We've all had a go at Emile over the time he's been with us and his last two performances won't overshadow that. Howver, he's done brilliantly for Houllier and that header today is as good as you'll see this season from anyone.

Superb header - and credit for his part in our opener too.

I seriously don't think Carew would have done the same. Heskey should be one of the first names on the team sheet nexy week.

Players in form should keep their places .

Great win today.

Let's hope that also means petrov on the bench.

I'm one of Emules biggest critics...but fairplay to him.

Hes pretty much changed and won us the last 2 games under GH with his contributions. Still looked like he lacked confidence in post game interview but its almost like watching a different player on the pitch.

Is this down to him being provided some service in decent areas, being used as an attacking centre forward rather than a "defensive forward"...or GH bit of je ne sais quoi. Whatever it is, long may it continue.

Petrovs relegation to the bench is long overdue.
Cant believe Heskey has finally decided to start his Villa carear. Keep it going Emile.

If he continues to play like he has in the last two games, he is a very valuable asset to the squad.

And then maybe will stop calling him emule.

He looks a lot fitter this season too, which might be part of his upturn in form. Doesn't look as if he's carrying niggles. Early last season he looked heavier than usual too. Now he's got some pace back, and is brimming with confidence on the pitch.

I hope he keeps this up, I really do.
